Abstract
BACKGROUND Squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal (EACSCC) is a rare condition. However, a standard treatment has not yet been established. We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy, adverse events, and feasibility of TPF-CCRT (concomitant chemoradiotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil) in patients with advanced EACSCC. METHODS Thirty-five consecutive patients with advanced EACSCC (T3, T4) initially treated with TPF-CCRT at Kobe University Hospital were included. T4 diseases with invasion of the brain, internal carotid artery, or internal jugular vein were classified as T4b, and those without these features were classified as T4a. RESULTS Five-year overall survival rates for T3 and T4 were 100% and 64.2%, respectively. A significant difference was observed between T4a and T4b (82.4% vs. 30%, p = 0.007). Five-year progression-free survival rates of T3, T4a, and T4b were 100%, 68%, and 20% (p = 0.022), respectively. CONCLUSIONS TPF-CCRT should be considered as a plausible treatment option for advanced EACSCC.

Abstract
Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics and surgical outcomes of patients with external auditory canal (EAC) and temporal bone (TB) malignancy with dura invasion. Methods The medical records of patients with EAC and TB malignancy with dura invasion were retrospectively reviewed. Survival outcomes (overall survival [OS], disease-specific survival [DSS], recurrence-free survival [RFS], and distant metastasis-free survival [DMFS]) were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results A total of eight patients were included in this study. The median age at diagnosis was 49.5 years (range 12-74 years). The median follow-up periods were 46.5 months. Histologically, four out of eight patients were diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC; 50%). The 2-year OS and DSS rates of all patients were 62.5%, and those of EAC SCC patients were 50% and 66.7%, respectively; while the 2-year RFS and DMFS rates of all patients were 37.5%. There was one local recurrence at the resection site (12.5%), two regional neck nodal recurrences (25%), and two distant metastases (25%). Dura resection and duroplasty areas were not involved in the local recurrence case. Conclusion In EAC and TB cancer with dura invasion, radical surgery with dura resection may show similar survival outcomes to previous studies without recurrence at the dura resection site.Level of evidence: IV.

Abstract
Temporal bone malignancies are relatively uncommon tumors. Their location adjacent to vital structures such as the carotid artery, jugular vein, otic capsule, and temporal lobe can make their treatment potentially challenging. The purpose of this study was to compare outcomes in temporal bone malignancies obtained via pooled literature data. The study sought to examine factors affecting survival in temporal bone malignancies based on the studies in the existing published literature. A systematic search was conducted on the PubMed (Medline), Embase, and Google Scholar databases to identify relevant studies from 1951 to 2022 that described the treatment of temporal bone malignancies. Articles that fulfilled the inclusion criteria were assessed and analyzed by the author. The literature search identified 5875 case series and case reports, and 161 of them contained sufficient data to be included in the pooled data analysis, involving a total of 825 patients. Multivariate analysis of the pooled literature data showed that overall stage, presence of facial palsy, and surgical margin status significantly affected overall survival (OS), while overall stage and presence of facial palsy significantly affected disease-free survival (DFS). To summarize, this study examined pooled survival data on demographics, treatment, and survival of patients with temporal bone malignancies utilizing an extensive literature-based pooled data meta-analysis. Overall stage, facial nerve status, and surgical margin status appeared to most strongly affect survival in patients with temporal bone malignancies.

Abstract
Background T4‐classified squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of external auditory canal (EAC) can potentially involve different anatomical structures, which could translate into different treatment strategies and survival outcomes within one classification. Our aim is to evaluate the clinical added value of T4‐subclasses proposed by Lavieille and by Zanoletti. Methods Retrospective data, including patients with primary operated cT4‐classified EAC SCC, was obtained from 12 international hospitals. We subclassified according to the T4‐subclasses. The treatment strategies, disease‐free survival (DFS) and overall survival per subclass were calculated. Results A total of 130 T4‐classified EAC SCC were included. We found commonly used treatment strategies per subclass according to Lavieille and the DFS seems also to differ per subclass. Subclass according to Zanoletti showed comparable treatment strategies and survival outcomes per subclass. Conclusion Our study suggests that the subclass according Lavieille might have added value in clinical practice to improve care of T4‐classified EAC SCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the outcomes for patients after lateral temporal bone resection surgery for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma, and to ascertain predictors of survival and treatment failure. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of the medical records for all patients who underwent lateral temporal bone resection for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma between 2007 and 2019 in Western Australia. RESULTS Thirty-seven patients underwent lateral temporal bone resection surgery. Median follow-up duration was 22 months. Twenty-five patients had squamous cell carcinoma and 12 had basal cell carcinoma. The overall survival rate at two years for patients with squamous cell carcinoma was 68.5 per cent. Pre-operative facial nerve involvement (determined via clinical or radiological evidence) was identified as a predictor of mortality (hazard ratio = 3.411, p = 0.006), with all patients dying before two years post-operatively. Locoregional tumour control was achieved in 81 per cent of cases (n = 30). CONCLUSION Lateral temporal bone resection offers acceptable local control rates and survival outcomes. Caution should be used in offering this surgery to patients with clinical or radiological evidence of facial nerve involvement because of the relatively poorer survival outcomes in this subgroup.

Abstract
Objective To examine the safety and efficacy of concomitant chemoradiotherapy using a modified TPF regimen (docetaxel + cisplatin + 5-fluorouracil) in patients with advanced sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC). Study Design Retrospective study. Setting Tertiary center (university hospital). Methods Seven patients with previously untreated T3-T4 SNSCC were enrolled. They underwent radiotherapy once daily (total dose, 70 Gy) with 2 courses of concomitant 120-hour infusion of 5-fluorouracil (600 mg/m2/d), docetaxel (50 mg/m2, day 2), and cisplatin (60 mg/m2, day 2) Results Grade 4 leukopenia, grade 4 neutropenia, and grade 3 lymphopenia were observed in 1, 3, and 4 patients, respectively. Grade 4 creatinine elevation was observed in 1 patient. However, other grade 3 or 4 adverse events were not common. Complete response was obtained in all patients. At 60 months there was 85.7% disease-free survival and 100% overall. Conclusion Concomitant chemoradiotherapy with a modified TPF regimen may be feasible and effective in patients with advanced SNSCC.

Abstract
We examined the role of lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) in the treatment of external ear canal (EAC) carcinoma between 2007 and 2018. The estimated 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) according to the tumor stage and treatments were investigated in 36 patients with EAC squamous cell carcinoma. T stage classification according to the University of Pittsburgh staging system was as follows: 14 patients in T1, four patients in T2, nine patients in T3, and nine patients in T4. The 3-year DFS rate was 77.4% for T1 tumors, 100% for T2, 44.4% for T3 tumors, and 11.1% for T4 tumors (p < 001). The 3-year DSS rate was 100% for T1/T2 tumors, 87.5% for T3 tumors, and 11.1% for T4 tumors (p < 0.01). T1/T2 patients received mostly LTBR. Among nine T3 tumors, five patients (56%) received LTBR combined with preoperative chemotherapy and/or postoperative radiation (RT). Four of them had negative surgical margin and survived with no evidence of disease. The DFS of T3 patients who underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy and LTBR was 0 and 80%, respectively (p = 0.048). For T1/T2 tumors, surgery achieved an excellent outcome. For T3 tumors, LTBR achieved negative surgical margin and showed good survival when combined with preoperative chemotherapy and/or postoperative RT. In contrast, the prognosis of T3 patients who could not undergo surgery was as poor as that of T4 patients. Therefore, in addition to subtotal temporal bone resection, LTBR-based treatment strategy may be a treatment option for limited cases of T3 patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chemoradiotherapy with docetaxel (DOC), cisplatin (CDDP), and 5-FU (TPF-CRT) for locally advanced external auditory canal cancer (EACC) has favorable oncological and functional outcomes. To establish TPF-CRT as a standard of care for advanced EACC, we conducted this study to determine the maximum tolerated (MTD) and recommended dose (RD) of DOC in TPF-CRT for locally advanced EACC. METHODS To determine the recommended (RD) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of DOC in TPF-CRT for EACC, a phase I trial was conducted using the standard "3 + 3" design for maximum dose finding. DOC was administered twice every 4 weeks, CDDP at 70 mg/m2 and 5-FU at 700 mg/m2; patients were also receiving radiotherapy (66 Gy). Eight patients with T3 or T4 EACC were prospectively enrolled. RESULTS Two patients treated with DOC, 50 mg/m2, and one out of six patients treated with DOC, 40 mg/m2, had dose-limiting toxicities. Prolonged febrile neutropenia was observed in three patients. Grade 3 non-hematological toxicities were observed in only three patients. At study completion, six patients survived, five of whom were disease free. CONCLUSION The RD and MTD of DOC in TPF-CRT for locally advanced EACC are 40 mg/m2 when doses of CDDP and 5-FU are 70 mg/m2 and 700 mg/m2, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to reveal the influence of the invasion site of external auditory canal (EAC) cancer by analyzing the outcome of patients with advanced tumor. METHODS A total of 111 patients with T4 EAC cancer were enrolled in this study. Of these patients, 79 underwent chemoradiotherapy and 32 underwent surgery under curative intent. Univariate and multivariate analyses and the Kaplan-Meier method were used to focus on the tumor invasion sites and overall survival of the patients. RESULTS The 3-year overall survival rate of all patients was 55.0%. In multivariate analysis, the only significant invasion site for overall survival was the facial nerve, with the dura mater being the next most influential site. When Kaplan-Meier survival curve was calculated, facial nerve and dura mater were the significant factors resulting in poor patient outcomes. CONCLUSION The facial nerve and dura mater are crucial sites of EAC cancer for patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal and middle ear has been improved by advances in skull base surgery and multidrug chemoradiotherapy during the last two decades. METHODS Ninety-five patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal and middle ear who were treated between 1998 and 2017 were enrolled. The number of patients with tumour stages T1, T2, T3 and T4 was 15, 22, 24 and 34, respectively. Oncological outcomes and prognostic factors were retrospectively investigated. RESULTS Among patients with T4 disease, invasion of the brain (p = 0.024), carotid artery (p = 0.049) and/or jugular vein (p = 0.040) were significant predictors of poor prognosis. The five-year overall survival rate of patients with at least one of these factors (T4b) was significantly lower than that of patients without these factors (T4a) (25.5 vs 65.5 per cent, p = 0.049). CONCLUSION It is proposed that stage T4 be subclassified into T4a and T4b according to the prognostic factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to provide a systematic review on survival outcome based on Pittsburgh T-staging for patients with primary external auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma. METHOD This study was a systematic review in compliance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines performed until January 2018; pertinent studies were screened. Quality of evidence was assessed using the grading of recommendation, assessment, development and evaluation working group system. RESULTS Eight articles were chosen that reported on 437 patients with external auditory carcinoma. The 5-year overall survival rate was 53.0 per cent. The pooled proportion of survivors at 5 years for T1 tumours was 88.4 per cent and for T2 tumours was 88.6 per cent. For the combined population of T1 and T2 cancer patients, it was 84.5 per cent. For T3 and T4 tumours, it was 53.3 per cent and 26.8 per cent, respectively, whereas for T3 and T4 tumours combined, it was 40.4 per cent. Individual analysis of 61 patients with presence of cervical nodes showed a poor survival rate. CONCLUSION From this review, there was not any significant difference found in the survival outcome between T1 and T2 tumours. A practical classification incorporating nodal status that accurately stratifies patients was proposed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for patients with advanced cancer of the external auditory canal (EAC) by analyzing the outcome of the patients. METHODS This is a multi-institutional retrospective survey, and we reviewed the medical records of the subjects. A total of 181 patients with tumor (T)3 or T4 tumor in 17 institutions were enrolled. Further analysis was performed for 74 patients who underwent CRT under curative intent. RESULTS Overall 5-year survival rates of the patients who underwent CRT (n = 74) were 54.6%. Those of the patients who underwent CRT with modified TPF (docetaxel, cisplatin [CDDP], and 5-fluorouracil) regimen (n = 50) and CRT with CDDP regimens (n = 24) were 64.4% and 36.7%, respectively. Significant differences were observed between these two groups. CONCLUSION Given the tendency that head and neck surgeons prefer CRT for advanced larger cancer of the EAC, CRT for advanced EAC cancer using the modified TPF regimen showed good clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Disregarding the widely used division of skull base into anterior and lateral, since the skull base should be conceived as a single anatomic structure, it was to our convenience to group all those approaches that run from the antero-lateral, pure lateral and postero-lateral side of the skull base as “Surgery of the lateral skull base”. “50 years of endeavour” points to the great effort which has been made over the last decades, when more and more difficult surgeries were performed by reducing morbidity. The principle of lateral skull base surgery, “remove skull base bone to approach the base itself and the adjacent sites of the endo-esocranium”, was then combined with function preservation and with tailoring surgery to the pathology. The concept that histology dictates the extent of resection, balancing the intrinsic morbidity of each approach was the object of the first section of the present report. The main surgical approaches were described in the second section and were conceived not as a step-by-step description of technique, but as the highlighthening of the surgical principles. The third section was centered on open issues related to the tumor and its treatment. The topic of vestibular schwannoma was investigated with the current debate on observation, hearing preservation surgery, hearing rehabilitation, radiotherapy and the recent efforts to detect biological markers able to predict tumor growth. Jugular foramen paragangliomas were treated in the frame of radical or partial surgery, radiotherapy, partial “tailored” surgery and observation. Surgery on meningioma was debated from the point of view of the neurosurgeon and of the otologist. Endolymphatic sac tumors and malignant tumors of the external auditory canal were also treated, as well as chordomas, chondrosarcomas and petrous bone cholesteatomas. Finally, the fourth section focused on free-choice topics which were assigned to aknowledged experts. The aim of this work was attempting to report the state of the art of the lateral skull base surgery after 50 years of hard work and, above all, to raise questions on those issues which still need an answer, as to allow progress in knowledge through sharing of various experiences. At the end of the reading, if more doubts remain rather than certainties, the aim of this work will probably be achieved.

Abstract
External auditory canal cancer (EACC) is a rare malignant tumor. In the present study, we retrospectively evaluated the treatment results in patients with advanced EACC who were treated using external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT) combined with chemotherapy or radical surgery. Overall, 21 patients with Stage III (n = 8) or Stage IV (n = 13) EACC who underwent initial treatment at our hospital between 2003 and 2016 were enrolled in this study. The 2-year overall survival (OS) and locoregional control (LRC) rates of all patients were 62% and 71%, respectively. The 2-year OS and LRC rates in patients who had received EBRT and concurrent chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (TPF, n = 6) were 100%. These results were higher than the 2-year OS and LRC rates of 62% and 69%, respectively, in patients who had received radical surgery and EBRT (n = 13). The rates were 0% in those who had neither received TPF nor undergone surgery in addition to EBRT (n = 2). Grade 3 bone or soft tissue necrosis was observed in 2 patients who had undergone surgery and postoperative EBRT. Our data suggest that the combination therapy of EBRT and surgery and/or chemotherapy may be the most effective treatment options for advanced EACC, and EBRT with concurrent chemotherapy with TPF is potentially the most acceptable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Carcinomas of the temporal bone are rare, and appropriate treatment, staging, and survival data are limited. This study evaluates clinical characteristics and survival rates for patients with temporal bone carcinoma treated with resection at a single tertiary-care institution, with a focus on the outcomes of patients with locally advanced disease including skull base and/or dural invasion. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review. METHODS Demographic, tumor-specific, and survival data were collected for patients with primary carcinomas of the external auditory canal with involvement of the temporal bone from 2003 to 2015. All patients were staged according to the modified Pittsburgh system. Kaplan-Meier and logistic regression analysis were used to calculate factor-specific survival outcomes. RESULTS Sixty-seven patients met inclusion criteria; 85% were male. There were 43 squamous cell carcinomas (64%) and 24 basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) (36%). Tumor stage was 24 (36%) T2, 12 (18%) T3, and 31 (46%) T4 tumors; 53% had recurrent disease. Surgical management included 49 lateral temporal bone resections and 18 subtotal temporal bone resections. Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed more favorable 5-year survival rates associated with BCC histology (P = .01), lateral temporal bone resection compared to subtotal temporal bone resection (P < .01), lack of immunocompromise (P = .04), and absence of perineural/lymphovascular invasion (P = .01). Multivariate regression analysis did not yield statistically significant results. CONCLUSIONS Factors predictive of more favorable survival include lack of immunocompromise, BCC histology, absence of perineural/lymphovascular invasion, and disease extent amenable to lateral temporal bone resection. Dural invasion is not an absolute contraindication to surgery, with a subset of patients surviving >5 years. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 Laryngoscope, 130:E11-E20, 2020.

Abstract
Objectives This article aims to clarify the long-term outcomes of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone who underwent concomitant chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Design and Setting The study design was a retrospective chart review. Patients and Methods From December 2001 to June 2014, 23 patients with cancer of the temporal bone who were treated by CCRT at the Tohoku University Hospital and the Iwate Medical University Hospital were enrolled in this study. For advanced cancer of the temporal bone, a modified docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (TPF) regimen was used for CCRT. The long-term outcomes, including prognoses and late complications, were analyzed after CCRT of patients with cancers of the temporal bone. Results The main long-term complications were stenosis of the external auditory canal and conductive hearing loss. No harmful late complications were observed in these patients. Disease-specific survival rates were 84.9% for all patients, 100% for patients of stage I, II, and III ( n = 10), and 75.5% for patients of stage IV ( n = 13) at 5 years. Conclusions Our study showed that CCRT is an effective treatment choice for squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone. Furthermore, CCRT using the TPF regimen is a safe and effective initial treatment for patients with advanced cancers of the temporal bone.

Abstract
The prognosis of advanced temporal bone cancer is poor, because complete surgical resection is difficult to achieve. Chemoradiotherapy is one of the available curative treatment options; however, its systemic effects on the patient restrict the use of this treatment. A 69-year-old female (who needed peritoneal dialysis) presented at our clinic with T4 left external auditory canal cancer and was treated with cetuximab plus radiotherapy (RT). The primary lesion showed complete response. The patient is currently alive with no evidence of disease two years after completion of the treatment and does not show any late toxicity. This is the first advanced temporal bone cancer patient treated with RT plus cetuximab. Cetuximab plus RT might be a treatment alternative for patients with advanced temporal bone cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to evaluate the prognostic factors and efficacy of treatment modalities for patients with temporal bone cancer, and to determine if definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for advanced-stage disease can provide a substitute for highly invasive surgeries. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective case series. SETTING Tertiary referral center. PATIENTS Sixty-six patients with previously untreated squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone treated with curative intent between April 1997 and March 2015. INTERVENTION Surgery alone, radiotherapy (RT) alone, surgery followed by RT or definitive CRT. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE The overall survival (OS) rate. RESULTS The 5-year OS rate for each T classification was 100% for T1, 76.2% for T2, 55.6% for T3, and 36.7% for T4. Univariable and multivariable analysis showed that T classification was an independent predictor of the OS rate (hazard ratio 5.66; 95% confidence interval 1.51-27.0; p = 0.015). Analysis by treatment modality revealed that the 5-year OS rate for patients with T1-2 was 100% for surgery and 81.3% for RT alone. The rate for patients with T3-4 was 52.1% for definitive CRT and 55.6% for surgery followed by RT with or without chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Patients with T1-2 benefited from surgical intervention without significant morbidity or mortality. Our findings also suggested that definitive CRT might be appropriate as the first-line treatment for T3-4, especially in cases with unresectable tumors.

Abstract
Many studies show that the human microbiome plays a critical role in the chronic pathologies of obesity, inflammatory bowel diseases, and diabetes. More recently, the interaction between cancer and the microbiome has been highlighted. Most studies have focused on the gut microbiota because it represents the most extensive bacterial community, and the body of evidence correlating it with gut syndromes is increasing. However, in the strict sense, the gastrointestinal (GI) tract begins in the oral cavity, and special attention should be paid to the specific flora of this cavity. This study reviewed the current knowledge about the various microbial ecosystems of the upper part of the GI tract and discussed their potential link to carcinogenesis. The overall composition of the microbial communities, as well as the presence or absence of "key species", in relation to carcinogenesis is addressed. Alterations in the oral microbiota can potentially be used to predict the risk of cancer. Molecular advances and the further monitoring of the microbiota will increase our understanding of the role of the microbiota in carcinogenesis and open new perspectives for future therapeutic and prophylactic modalities.

Abstract
Objectives/Hypothesis To investigate the relationship between handedness and the incidence of squamous cell carcinoma in the external auditory canal (EACSCC). Materials and Methods Sixty‐eight cases of EACSCC were enrolled in this study, and their affected side was checked. Handedness and ear‐picking habits were also investigated in 34 EACSCC cases. Handedness was judged based on self‐categorization, and the relationship between handedness and the affected side was investigated. Results Fifty‐two cases occurred on the right side, and 16 cases occurred on the left side of patients with EACSCC. The incidence of laterality in EACSCC showed a statistically significant right dominance. Concerning handedness, 29 cases were right‐handed, 4 cases were left‐handed, and 1 case was ambidextrous. Twenty‐seven out of the 29 right‐handed cases and 1 ambidextrous case suffered from carcinoma on the right side, whereas 3 left‐handed cases suffered from carcinoma on the left side. That is, most of the cases suffered from EACSCC on the same side as their handedness, and this tendency showed a statistically significant difference. Most of the patients with EACSCC experienced itching and habitual ear‐picking in the affected side. Conclusion Mechanical stimulations to the EAC, such as ear picking, may plausibly cause EACSCC. In Japan, ear picking, also called “mimikaki,” is a popular habit and an established unique culture. Because ear picking requires delicate handling and manipulation, this tends to occur on the same side as the handedness in the Japanese population. This is the first report about the relationship between handedness and carcinogenesis. Level of Evidence N/A.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to analyze outcomes for the treatment of locally advanced temporal bone cancer by means of concomitant chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with a combination of cisplatin (CDDP), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and docetaxel (TPF). METHODS Between 2006 and 2011, 34 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone were treated at Kobe University Hospital. Medical records were retrospectively reviewed to obtain information concerning patient characteristics, extent of disease, treatment, adverse events, and oncologic results. RESULTS Ten patients were treated with CCRT using TPF regimen. The 5-year overall survival rate and disease-free survival rate were both 60%. Of special interest is that even for patients with unresectable T4 disease, the 5-year overall survival rate was 56%. CONCLUSION The results of our study indicate that CCRT with TPF for locally advanced temporal bone cancer is an effective and promising regimen. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
We aimed to evaluate the impact of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) on the survival of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone. We retrospectively analyzed the data of 13 consecutive patients who were treated by definitive radiation therapy (RT) or CCRT as the initial treatment between 1999 and 2012. There were 5 patients with stage II disease, 5 with stage III, and 3 with stage IV, as classified according to the University of Pittsburgh system. Among these, 2, 4, and 3 patients, respectively, were treated by CCRT; whereas the remaining (3 patients with stage II and 1 with stage III) were treated by RT alone. Median follow-up duration was 39 months (12-106 months) in all cases, and 61.5 months (17-70 months) in censored cases. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 51 % in all patients, and 40, 100, and 0 % in patients with stage II, stage III, and stage IV disease, respectively. In patients with stage II and III disease, the 5-year OS rates were 80 % in the CCRT group and 50 % in the RT-alone group. We found better prognosis in patients with stage II and III disease who were treated by CCRT. Only 2 patients treated by CCRT experienced adverse events more than grade 3, which were neutropenia and dermatitis. There was no late adverse event of bony necrosis. Our study results indicate that CCRT is safe and very effective as a first-line treatment for stage II and III squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The standard treatment for advanced external auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is subtotal temporal bone resection and postoperative radiation therapy (RT), whereas chemoradiation therapy (CRT) is used in some institutions to improve patient prognosis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of CRT in external auditory canal SCC treatment. METHODS Meta-analyses of external auditory canal SCC studies were performed. We extracted 5-year overall survival rates and number of patients for aggregate patient data, and types of treatment and outcomes for individual patient data. RESULTS The 5-year overall survival rate of 752 patients was 57%. In the individual patient data meta-analysis, the 5-year overall survival rates of patients who received surgery ± RT, preoperative CRT, definitive CRT, and postoperative CRT were 53.5%, 85.7%, 43.6%, and 0%, respectively. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that preoperative CRT may improve the survival of surgically treated patients with external auditory canal SCC and that definitive CRT may be equivalent to surgical resection.

Abstract
We present a case of an 81-year-old man who was diagnosed with a necrotising (malignant) otitis externa (NOE). Initial biopsies from the external auditory canal showed scanty squamous epithelium but no evidence of malignancy. Despite an initial improvement on intravenous antibiotics and subsequent discharge from hospital, the patient returned with worsening otalgia. Following readmission to the hospital, intravenous antibiotics were restarted. Despite this, the patient developed a lower motor neurone palsy of cranial nerve VII on the ipsilateral side of the pain. He was taken to the theatre for an exploration of the left mastoid with further biopsies. Adenocarcinoma was diagnosed histologically and the patient was started on palliative radiotherapy. This case adds to the known literature on metastatic disease in the temporal bone and highlights the need to exclude malignancy in cases of NOE.

Abstract
AIMS Although it accounts for fewer than 0.2% of all head and neck tumours, temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is an aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis in advanced cases. Novel therapeutic strategies should be developed focusing on specific targeted therapies. Maspin is a serpin showing tumour-suppressing activity which has therapeutic potential. The present study is the first to investigate maspin expression in temporal bone SCCs, using a series of 29 cases. METHODS AND RESULTS Cytoplasmic maspin expression was significantly higher in the group of patients whose SCC did not recur than in the group experiencing recurrences (P = 0.029), and in G1-G2 SCCs than in G3 cases (P = 0.001). cT correlated with recurrence rate (P = 0.05), disease-free survival (DFS) (P = 0.008) and disease-specific survival (DSS) (P = 0.0043), and pT and pathological regional lymph node status correlated with recurrence rate (P = 0.008 and P = 0.03, respectively), DFS (P = 0.017 and P = 0.0049, respectively) and DSS (P = 0.008 and P = 0.0009, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Although further studies using larger series are required, our preliminary findings suggest that cytoplasmic maspin expression has promise as a prognostic indicator of disease recurrence in temporal bone SCC, and that reactivating maspin functions in association with apoptosis-inducing or anti-angiogenic chemotherapeutic agents might be an important goal in the treatment of temporal bone SCC.

Abstract
Primary temporal bone tumors are rare. Suspicious lesions of the ear canal should be biopsied for diagnosis. Surgical resection to achieve negative margins is the mainstay of treatment. Small tumors can be treated with lateral temporal bone resection. Parotidectomy and neck dissection are added for disease extension and proper staging. Higher staged tumors generally require subtotal temporal bone resection or total temporal bone resection. Adjuvant postoperative radiotherapy has shown improved survival for some patients. Chemotherapy has an emerging role for advanced stage disease. Evaluation and management by a multidisciplinary team are the best approach for patients with these tumors.
